I am completely new to Gargoyle so please forgive me if my questions seem a bit dense.
1.
Can Gargoyle provide the following function:-
If there is only one LAN user then that user can use the full capacity of the internet connection, but if there is more than one then the capacity will be managed so that no single user can hog the connection and each user gets a fair share of the available capacity.
2.
The TP-Link WR1043ND is on the list of supported devices, what are the chances of the firmware working with the TP-Link WR1042ND.

That's QoS or Quality of Service. I don't use it myself, so I can only give you a gist of what I've read.
You set it to about 95% of your max up/down speeds. When traffic approaches those speeds, rules kick in and adjust the traffic. So even when its just you, you get 95% because that's the new limit.

Vanishingly small in the short term. The router uses Realtek chips which are not well supported in OpenWrt.
